Help finding a replacement band for Citizen

My first Automatic watch - a Citizen that I've had for 15+ years is in need of a replacement clasp or band. The watch was never officially offered in the USA, as far as I know.

Information from the Caseback is a follows:
CITIZEN WATCH CO.
WATER RESIST
BASE METAL CP
4-R00502 RW
40600562 (serial #?)
BN-4W-S

On the bottom of the dial, it says:
P-8200 R04267-K Y

6 years ago, when I had the watch serviced, I learned it has a Miyota 8200 movement - it's been a very accurate watch!

It's an OP-inspired watch, and that's why I got it. It was my gatgeway into automatic watches, and Rolex.

However, the clasp has failed - the metal fatigued and cracked.
My searches for replacement bands or clasps have failed.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Watch looks like this (but with silver dial):
